community radio at its best (you nutter)
Being a tape I made in the mid-Nineties of my favorite pirate-tape bits from the early-90s
Now the excerpt from Index FM (starts at 5.05 minutes in) is engraved in my heart and memory for all time on account of these two tunes:
The first time I ever did hear Foul Play - the start of a lifelong love affair
And very fond of this one too, which kicks the sequence off
Got all three on vinyl. But none of them has ever sounded as electrifying on their own as in this sequence, even with the fucked-up mix between "It's Not Over" and "Living Lonely" - a classic case of "not in spite of, because of"
